Hello,
I need to know how to run the wires for a spal with a toggle switch without worrying about destroying my batteries, rectifier etc. I need the easiest breakdown, lol I’ve tried researching and still am unsure. If u can help please do so! Tx!
I have a 2013 outlander xmr 1000. The shifter is getting really difficult to use if the quad is at all on uneven ground. Can the shifter linkage be adjusted to help this?
I had something really weird happen while taking my 85 250R out for a spin the other day. I bought this trike back in 85 and have owned it ever since. It is stock with exception of the Uni air filter. I am running Maxima Formula K2 at around 32:1 or 40:1, spark plug is an NGK BR8EV gapped according to spec(stock is BR9ES). I don’t remember the main jet size, but I am running leaner main jet than stock 142 size (altitude is about 4500 ft). I am running the stock pilot jet with the needle on the 1st groove, and Boyeesen reeds (spelling?) It runs great. Like I said, I took it for a spin to run some gas through it. On a stretch of dirt road, I briefly ran it wide open. When I let off the throttle, it remained revving almost wide open. I thought the carb slide was stuck open but it wasn’t. I hit the kill switch and it stayed running! I reached above the head and pulled the plug wire and it STAYED RUNNING! I thought it was going to blow up. I finally stalled it with the clutch. I let it set a while, started it, and all was fine. I rode it home at a pretty calm speed and I checked the plug, it looked fine, except for being a little wet. Now it does have a recent top end with very few hours on it. I run 90 octane, because it is all we have where I live. The manual recommends 91. Has anyone ever heard of something like this? What could have caused it. It could not have a hot spot due to carbon build up on the head or piston. I doubt it was a fuel/octane issue since it was fresh fuel. The only thing I can come up with is the spark plug. Maybe it got too hot and was igniting fuel despite the kill switch being off AND the spark plug cable being disconnected? I am at a loss. Thanks for any ideas.
Need help looking to get a new slip-on pipe with programmer. I have a 2016 outlander Xmr 1000. Not sure which one to get I know RJWC is more money. I had 2 HMF pipe on other ATV’s and love them!! Let me know what you guys think thank you.
I bought the wheeler with the problems. I have spent several hours digging around the net trying to figure it out. It stays in 1st gear and in limp mode in reverse. I have changed the angle sensor and also the CDI. I read on presenting the angle sensor and turned it back until it hit the big Allen screws and the turned it clockwise until it seated and the holes lined up. With both replaced I’m still getting a 6 code. I have tried an ECM reset and hear the motor, but the dash continues to flash "–". I have tried several resets due to finding all kinds of different methods. I’m stuck and ready to roll it out of the shop and burn it! What was so wrong with the foot shift? We all used it fine for years!
I’m from Arkansas so it’s Hi Y’all. I have been a shade tree mechanic for about 20 years. I am a certified GM and Mopar mechanic. I also did side jobs with ATVs and outboard motors. I came across a 07 Honda TRX400fga with shift problems at a bargain. Now I can’t figure it out.
